“Food is fuel so if you want to work out longer and be stronger, be sure to eat prior to exercising. A full meal can be eaten three to four hours prior and a snack one to two hours prior. Hydrate with water throughout the day. If you are taking two or three classes back to back, have a small snack in between classes: a small piece of fruit or half a granola bar and water. This will replenish your energy and prevent lightheadedness and fatigue.”
